What an incredible day at Woolloomooloo Wharf! We are still buzzing from Sony Foundation’s Wharf 4 Ward 2026 event, where the energy was electric and the impact even more powerful. Together with over 100 media and corporate partners, the foundation raised a record-breaking $1,665,000 for young Australians facing cancer. As the founding accommodation partner of Sony Foundation’s 'You Can Stay' program, Quest is deeply committed to ensuring that regional youth don't have to face the burden of cancer alone. The funds raised will continue to provide free, uncapped accommodation for patients (aged 15–29) and their families while they undergo lifesaving treatment in the city. It was a star-studded ‘Longest Lunch’ featuring: ●    Live performances from Ben Lee, Jem Cassar-Daley, and KYE. ●    Iconic hosts who kept the day sparkling, including Nine Network’s Karl Stefanovic, Peter Overton AM, Richard Wilkins, Nova’s Kate Ritchie and Wippa, and Seven network’s Matt Shirvington and Natalie Barr. ●    The Quest network in support - we were so proud to have a strong contingent from our Quest properties who partner with the You Can Stay program with accommodation able to attend on the day. - we were so proud to have a strong contingent from our network on the ground supporting this vital cause. A huge shoutout to: ●    David Mansfield GAICD ●    Jill Burton and Daniel Burton (Quest Newcastle and Newcastle West) ● Sagar Verma and Kamal Verma (Quest Bella Vista) ●    John Michael Soriano, MBA (Quest Mascot) ●    James Blanchett, GAICD and Lys Blanchett (Quest Sydney Olympic Park) To date, our partnership has provided over 45,000 nights of accommodation across our properties. Hearing stories like those from Alana, who has stayed over 70 nights with us while treating a brain tumour, reminds us exactly why we do what we do. Congratulations to the Sony Foundation on another landmark event. We are honoured to continue this journey with you. #Quest #QuestForACause #Wharf4Ward #YouCanStay #SonyFoundation #CommunityImpact
